Congressman Ashford Visits Green Plains' Omaha Office

U.S. Congressman Brad Ashford, who represents the 2nd Congressional District of Nebraska, visited the Omaha office on the afternoon of Friday, Jan. 29.

During his visit to the Omaha office, Rep. Ashford met with Green Plains’ management team, including our CEO Todd Becker. Rep. Ashford expressed support for our growing Company and was happy to see that our growth will move the headquarters to a new Omaha location.

Rep. Ashford finished his visit by talking with Omaha employees about his passion for representing Nebraska’ 2nd District, his commitment to veterans and his work to ensure the growth of Nebraska businesses, including Green Plains.

In Congress, Rep. Ashford has been a staunch supporter of Nebraska’s ethanol industry and the RFS. Last September, he was awarded Growth Energy’s “Fueling Growth” award to recognize his ethanol leadership in Congress.
